About the work

Museum text in Spanish

Figura femenina de perfil a la izquierda, con el cuerpo ligeramente girado hacia nosotros, sin terminar de dibujarse las piernas. Está sentada en una butaca o silla de alto respaldo con mullidos cojines en la espalda y la cabeza. Los brazos cruzados en el regazo. Viste camisa con rayas verticales, y se cubre las piernas con una manta. Va peinada con moño y cierra los ojos, durmiendo. En el reverso, unos rasguños, quizá el esbozo de una cabeza.

    Galerie Georges Petit: nearly 500 works

    A one-man show at the Galeries Georges Petit in Paris — figures, landscapes, portraits, early works and recent sun-drenched beaches — eclipsed all his earlier successes. His productivity amazed critics, the show was a financial triumph, and it brought him the rank of Officer of the Legion of Honour.
